Review by Samantha
"I've been taking lessons from Toshi every week for the last few months. I feel like I've learned more Japanese in this short time frame than the amount of
French I've learned in the five years I took in high school and college. Really personable and fun to take lessons with and teaches you not only the language, but the culture too. Hope to keep taking lessons for much longer!"

Review by Kaite
"He's really patient with me when I'm trying to remember things. It takes me a bit sometimes to respond and he never rushes me. I am also a student who get
s bored if things are too easy, but can also get frustrated if I don't feel successful. Toshi challenges me just enough to make me feel like I am really successful in learning, without feeling like I am always failing. Toshi changes his lessons to fit each student, and is really helpful whenever I have questions."

Review by Kevin
"Toshi-san helped me prepare for my upcoming trip to Japan by having lessons that focused on my needs as a traveler. He discussed the Japanese alphabets an
d taught me vocabulary and sentences for asking directions, ordering food, introducing myself, shopping, telling date and time, etc... I also learned about basic conversations, grammar, pronunciation and sentence formations. He was very patient, attentive to my needs and encouraging. I would love to work with him again when I get back from my business trip!"

Review by Scott
"I've been trying to learn Japanese for a long time, and have never been able to understand Japanese TV, anime, news, dramas, or anything like that, despit
e several classes and investment in tools like Rosetta Stone, Japanese in a Flash and the like. Although I am still a long way from really being able to understand the shows, Toshi's explanations of how the language is used every day has been enlightening, and allowed me to get a better handle on sentence structure when I'm listening to the spoken language. I had no idea that the Japanese I had been learning in school and through the other texts I had used was really only for polite situations, when most of what I am hearing in television shows and movies is more casual and doesn't use many of the particles and phrases that are commonly taught. I'm excited to continue working with Toshi."

Review by Teresa
"Maria is a wonderful teacher. Her classes are well-planned and she has a clear goal of what she wants her students to learn and accomplish during each cla
ss. Her instructions are always clear. She is kind and patient, and my observation is that her students feel comfortable in her class. She makes the classes interesting and fun , too. She was my teacher in 2015 and 2016. I highly recommend her to anybody who wishes to learn a new language or polish their Italian."

Learning a new language can be daunting with so many grammar rules, different phonemes, and what is a phoneme anyways?
I moved to the US at the age of 16 and began teaching Spanish the following year. Let's take the daunting out of learning a language and get you speaking.
